They'll sell them at a realistic price nearer the time.

I don't think it's as big a percentage as you are suggesting. These guys are gamblers and probably have a better grasp of market place than we do.

Interesting and probably not relevant. Rebecca Ferguson has just postponed her tour in January and February for some of the same venues as Leona. She's apparently wanting to focus on her new album. Perhaps some of her disappointed fans will go to see Leona instead.

Yeah think so too.. the link you posted had like 20-50 seats to sell, most venues have 2,000+ seats so I don't think it's bad if those aren't selling now.. but unless of course if you have 10 secondary markets then it's close to 200-500 seats left

Hopefully 85% is from ticketmaster, that looks good

I really think she could if they are looking for hits! I think it'll be a much stronger album than I Am with much more potential!

This isn't how these things usually work. Each distributer's website is usually synchronised so that when someone books a seat it is reflected on all websites. That's how hotel websites work anyway so I would be very surprised if concert ticketing is any different.

I got tickets for Adele from a different website than my friend did, so I just presumed it worked a similar way. May be wrong, but it still doesn't take away the fact that the dates wont be anywhere near "40 seats left" type of thing, I don't think.

EDIT - I got them in the pre-sale though, she didn't, so maybe that's why.

Adele's different though - literally every single site that sells tickets in the universe tried to get Adele's tickets to resell. Then her team introduced some of the toughest regulations for ticket re-sale I'ver ever seen.

Should sell decently though - enough to make a profit given the high ticket prices.

Plus maybe there'll be a bit of promotion in January to get some last minute ticket sales? Or "Another Love Song" will be performed on the BRITS and an amazing video filmed for it and will smash just in time for the tour to kick off.

I hope we get the cover she recorded this week as a Christmas gift.

If not this week I wonder why she recorded it and if they still plan on releasing it.

I'm currently listening to my music collection on my PC alphabetically by song title (rather than my normal random play) so heard I Got You followed by I Got You.

For me the first song from Echo is so much more original than the more recent song from I Am which is too much like other forgettable pop songs.

Oh thanks babe! The dress was inspired by Leona's Rockefeller performance of IWICBC.
Anyway let me now if you want me to do more of these videos. I'm thinking about Ave Maria now.

Anyway Leona is so cute on her snapchat and that lady behind her

Watched the Taylor swift live video and searched throughout for leona. The only part leona was in is the same bit as the trailer. Only the bit where they sang "I keep bleeding".

"One More Sleep" update:

#86 on spotify with 54,458 plays.

#118 & #147 on iTunes. ~70 combined. #15 on Google play.

#31 on TV airplay chart.

Its airplay seems to be picking up again, hope it'll climb enough to go top 75 come Friday.

How come it dropped from #70 to #86 on spotify in the space of a day?
I thought as it got closer it would rise, not fall /:
I was hoping it could maybe chart at #40 this week, but looks like it'll be like #60-#70
